2020-09-25T02:50:49.198Z


The Secretary for Civil Service, Nie Dequan, met with a number of civil service union groups a few days ago to introduce the public service oath plan to be launched in mid-October, gradually covering new civil servants to current civil servants. Some participants revealed that Nie Dequan stated at the meeting that violating the oath is equivalent to violating the "National Security Law", and did not respond to how to implement and punish. Leung Choi-ting, the director general of the Federation of Civil Service Unions, said on the radio program this morning (25th) that the morale of civil servants has been greatly affected after the news came out. "Everyone is quail, don't dare to speak wild" to avoid being caught. Make a small report and convict with words. He also pointed out that in the past, the number of grades that have been actively applied, such as the number of applications for civilian staff, has dropped from 30,000 to 18,000. It is believed that the uncertainty and increased constraints have greatly reduced the attractiveness of civil servants.

The Hong Kong version of the National Security Law stipulates that civil servants are required to swear or sign a declaration of allegiance.

In an interview with Radio Hong Kong’s program "Millenniums", Leung Choi-ting mentioned that there is no problem in requesting oaths for new recruits, and those who wish to go fishing; but if the current civil servants are required to swear, and the civil servants refuse and choose to leave, it is based on government orders In breach of the employment contract, they believe that the authorities only arrange appropriate compensation.

He also pointed out that the most controversial issue is that civil servants may be subject to criminal prosecutions for breaching their oaths. He hopes that the government can clearly determine and explain the objective criteria and explain what circumstances will contravene the red line, so as to avoid being guilty of words.

According to Article 6 of the National Security Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, residents of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region shall sign documents confirming or sworn to support the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China and allegiance to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China when participating in elections or assuming public office.

Civil servants swore that they intend to push Nie Dequan next month, stating that they could be dismissed if they refused to sign the visa
